Fast Analysis of Local Current Distribution for Electromagnetic Scattering Problems of Electrically Large Objects

To improve computational efficiency of obtaining local induced current distribution under multiple incidents angles when electromagnetic scattering problems of electrically large objects are considered, a novel method is proposed to form small-scale impedance matrix and reduce number of repeated calculation for different incident angles, which is implemented by following three steps. Firstly, an undetermined matrix equation including multiple incident angles is constructed by interrelating part field nodes and all source nodes on object surface. Secondly, the undetermined matrix equation is transformed into a form that conforms to the compressive sensing (CS) framework, which is solved by reconstructed algorithm to obtain approximate induced currents of all source nodes under a wide incident angle range. Finally, exact wide-angle currents of a given node are obtained by calculating total magnetic field, and neighborhood wide-angle currents of the given node can be expanded by choosing appropriate technology in different boundary conditions. Numerical results of electrically large objects shown the efficiency of the proposed method.
